Professor Bonilla-Silva gained visibility in the social sciences with his 1997 American Sociological Review article, “Rethinking Racism: Toward a Structural Interpretation,” where he challenged social analysts to analyze racial matters from a structural perspective rather than from the sterile prejudice perspective.

His most recent television appearance was on the PBS election special, Race 2012. He has written several books, including White Supremacy and Racism in the Post-Civil Rights Era (co-winner of the 2002 Oliver Cox Award given by the American Sociological Association) and Racism Without Racists: Color-Blind Racism and the Persistence of Racial Inequality in the United States (2004 Choice Award).

Bonilla-Silva received the 2004 Lewis Coser Award for Theoretical-Agenda Setting and the 2011 Cox-Johnson-Frazier Award given by the American Sociological Association.

He'll answer: Why did mainstream journalists miss the looming financial crisis, while some outside the mainstream got it? What does the business press's failure to alert the public say about its financial acumen and investigative abilities? Hear his analysis of the problem and his recommendations of how financial journalism can regain its status as the public watchdog.

The Ban Bossy campaign, a national campaign that works to bring awareness and diminish the social double standards for the sexes. Speaking about the different stereotypes young kids face while growing up. “When a little boy asserts himself, he’s called a ‘leader.’ Yet when a little girl does the same, she risks being branded ‘bossy.’ Words like ‘bossy’ send a message: don’t raise your hand or speak up. The Ban Bossy campaign attempts to address the root of the problem: the assignment of conflicting labels to boys and girls at the earliest stages of education. It's a lot more than just banning the word but to make sure that there's equality for everyone.
